2024 Week #8 Discussion

[Beeznik]

wow.

what a tilt. this was a back and forth game and came right down to the wire. Feeling really happy about pulling this one out.

GG Beez. I'm sure we'll see eachother again

GG Matt. All three of our losses are by 3 points. We'll hopefully come out on top of those sooner than later. On a side note, you usually don't win games against a good team when you allow them two touchdown drives that total 16 yards. Another classic Georgia game.

GG Brando,
London travelled to Cleveland and ended up thumping the Clawz.
Downside is Omar Robinson will be out for a month with a seperated shoulder....but that is exactly why we traded in Hunter Stills.
Time to step up Hunter.

Next up Iowa.

[Argot]

OMG! We got TORCHED by a 38 rated backup QB.

20 for 24 for 428 yards???? We had no answer today. I tip my hat to Lansing.

Our offense was great...just not as good as Lansing. This was the weirdest game I've ever watched. Defenses forgot to suit up today.

I guess the passing cohesion kicked in today along with the tweaks in the game plan. I figured we would have made it close...didn't figure we would score a combined 98 points.

GG Argot

Mark...thanks for the batter.....

Our latest run against Tulsa has been very fortunate and luckily continued today. I won't insult an IFL Champion GM with a "good game" on what clearly was a down time so I'll leave it at "Better times to come" for a team waiting to get back involved in the draft game.

Looking at the standing things are getting tough in the NC. I'll be back into IFL in about 3 weeks or so. Hope it's not too late by then. Scary to see that dreaded "black dot" next to the Phantoms in the standings.

Feeling really happy about pulling this one out.

That's what she said.

GG Jester.

Looks like the hardest retirement was Brock Heath.

I will be looking to trade Sugar in the offseason I imagine. Hopefully that will begin the long process.

[JesterBlaze]

Castillo needs 600 yards to be the All-Time leader and do the seemingly impossible and overcome DH. Something ain't right about him playing back-up in this situation, even to the All-Talented Sparkman.

I throw the following out as data, not a be-all-end-all summation:

Though I was against "The Trade" from the start, at this point you've ridden the bad times. This off-season you can get a quality C and G by gambling picks 3-6 (rounds) and accepting 2 losses (3,4,5,6 = 4 choices to get the 2 positions) not even counting trades. You'll never get what you paid since it was an auction to begin with and you were highest bidder for "Sugar". Keep the cohesion and continue, as opposed to beginning, the long process.

[markc]

now I'm at odds, my offense is putting up yards w/ Downing at the helm but we're out of the hunt. Hull looked awful in his one start BUT if we're going to be losing anyway I'd rather see what the kid's got so I'm not drafting QB AGAIN next season.

I don't want guys thinking I'm tanking by not starting the highest rated QB on my roster but I've got to see whassup with Hull.

don't blame you. I thought for sure after you trounced us the first week that you would at least be in the running at this point.

[markc]

Wow, LAN 56, CAR 42. Is that the highest scoring game in league history? The only record I could find was most points scored by a team, 59 by Madison.

[BuddaKINGII]

GG Fresno! This was the Fresno we didn't want to show up! Hahaha We got torched on the ground. Our offense was pretty bland. Luckily, we're still only a game out from a play-off spot so we can rebound.

[BOSS]

It might be the highest scoring game. I remember a playoff game between Salt Lake City and Columbia that had a similar score. That game should be known as "The Game", Booker vs. Cartagena. What a classic that was back in the day.

Look what the Damn VooDoo are doing with Feiderspel. Getting a ton of production out of a guy that at first glance don't appear too be starting material. I know the Mules beat them twice, but neither game was because of bad QBing.

Ya, especially when the YPC is significantly higher than Sparkman! Castillo still has time, especially if he decides to come back next season!

that was insane.
